Objective:
To explore the results of comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) among convalescent elderly population, so as to provide the basis for strengthening the health management service level for convalescent elderly population.
Methods:
A total of 200 elderly people who convalesced at Hangzhou Wuyunshan Hospital from January 2021 to December 2023 were selected as the research subjects. The basic information, physical condition, psychological status, functional status, and social environment of the elderly were investigated using the CGA protocol. The basic characteristics of the elderly, physical conditions such as medication adherence, pain, malnutrition and frailty, psychological conditions such as cognitive function, anxiety symptoms and depression symptoms, functional conditions such as fall risk and social support level and social environment assessment results were analyzed.
Results:
Among the 200 elderly individuals, 58.00% were male, 44.50% were aged 70 to <80 years, 58.00% had an education level of high school or above, 55.00% were unmarried, 61.50% were childless, and 60.50% had basic medical insurance for employees. In terms of physical condition, 59.00% had comorbid chronic diseases, 40.50% used multiple medications, and the incidences of poor medication adherence, pain, malnutrition, and frailty were 22.50%, 10.00%, 54.00%, and 36.00%, respectively. Regarding psychological status, the incidences of impaired cognitive function, anxiety symptoms, and depressive symptoms were 57.00%, 89.50%, and 91.00%, respectively. In terms of functional status and social environment, 90.00% had a risk of falling, and 31.00% had a high level of social support. Univariable analysis showed that elderly individuals aged ≥80 years and those with an education level of primary school or below had higher incidences of poor medication adherence during convalescence; elderly individuals with poor medication adherence had a higher incidence of pain; and elderly individuals with impaired cognitive function, anxiety symptoms, and depressive symptoms had higher incidences of malnutrition (all P<0.05).
Conclusions
The physical condition and psychological status of convalescent elderly individuals are relatively poor, with a high risk of falling and insufficient levels of social support. Poor medication adherence is associated with advanced age and lower education levels, while malnutrition is associated with impaired cognitive function, anxiety symptoms, and depressive symptoms. Comprehensive health management for convalescent elderly population should be strengthened, and personalized health management services should be provided to improve their quality of life and sense of well-being.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of different doses of zinc in the treatment of diarrhea in children, and to provide a reference for clinical safe and rational drug use. METHODS Retrieved from PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase database, randomized controlled trials about zinc (zinc group) versus placebo or conventional treatment (control group) in the treatment of diarrhea in children were collected from the inception to October 2022. Then, the quality of the included literature was evaluated by the Cochrane Handbook 6.0, and meta-analysis and sensitivity analysis were performed by RevMan 5.3 software. RESULTS Finally, 25 RCTs were included, with a total of 8 618 children. The results of meta-analysis showed that in terms of duration of diarrhea, in zinc <20 mg group, the zinc group was significantly shorter than the control group [SMD= -0.39, 95%CI(-0.71, -0.08), P=0.01], but in subgroups of <6 months old, there was no significant difference between the two groups [SMD=0.01, 95%CI(-0.10, 0.11), P=0.88]. In zinc 20 mg group, the zinc group was significantly shorter than the control group [SMD=-0.52, 95%CI(-0.80, -0.23), P=0.000 3]. In zinc >20 mg group, the zinc group was significantly shorter than the control group [SMD=-0.83, 95%CI(-1.39, -0.27), P=0.004]. In zinc >10 mg (age ≤12 months) or zinc > 20 mg (age >12 months) group (short for “constant dose group”), the zinc group was significantly shorter than the control group [SMD=-0.16, 95%CI(-0.27, -0.06), P= 0.003]. In the aspect of diarrhea rate after 7 days of treatment,there was no significant difference in the diarrhea rate after 7 E-mail:lihuiying@etyy.cn days of treatment between the zinc group and the control group: in zinc <20 mg group[OR=1.28,95%CI (0.96,1.70),P=0.09], in zinc 20 mg group [OR=0.40, 95%CI (0.15,1.01),P= 0.05], in constant dose group [OR=0.64, 95%CI (0.28, 1.44), P=0.28]. In terms of vomiting rate, in zinc <20 mg group, the vomiting rate of zinc group was significantly higher than that of the control group [OR=2.13, 95%CI (1.68, 2.70), P<0.001]; in constant dose group, vomiting rate of zinc group was significantly higher than that of the control group [OR=1.84, 95%CI (1.44, 2.34), P<0.001]. CONCLUSIONS Zinc can significantly shorten the duration of diarrhea in children(6 months and above), but low doses can increase the risk of vomiting, which should be taken attention in clinical.

Objective:To evaluate the residual risk (RR) of transfusion transmitted HIV (TT-HIV) after the implementation of nucleic acid amplification test (NAT) in blood screening test among blood centers in China.Methods:The data of blood donors and HIV infection markers from 2017 to 2020 were collected from 28 blood centers via the Platform of Comparison of blood establishments Practice in Chinese Mainland. The new infection rate/window period mathematical model was used for two types of blood screening strategies, namely, two rounds ELISA plus individual NAT take turn with pooling NAT (2ELISA+ ID-NAT/MP-NAT) and two ELISA plus one round pooling NAT (2ELISA+ MP-NAT), and the RR of HIV infection was estimated also based on first donors (FDs) and repeated donors (RDs) in different blood donation years. T-test analyses were conducted for comparing TT HIV RR among FDs and RDs in different blood donation years with two blood screening strategies, and the variation trend of RR in HIV test was observed.Results:From 2017 to 2020, the RR of FDs in 2ELISA+ ID-NAT/MP-NAT blood screening strategy was 2.869/10 6 person-year, 3.795/10 6 persons-year, 3.879/10 6 person-year, and 2.890/10 6 person-year respectively. The RR of RDs was 1.797/10 6 person-year, 1.502/10 6 person-year, 1.857/10 6 person-year, and 1.483/10 6 person-year respectively. Significant difference exists between RR of FDs and RDs, with F=9.898 and p<0.05. In 2ELISA+ MP-NAT strategy, the RR of FDs was 3.508/10 6 person-year, 1.868/10 6 person-year, 2.204/10 6 person-year, and 1.765/10 6 person-year respectively. The RR of RDs was 0.948/10 6 person-year, 0.926/10 6 person-year, 0.748/10 6 person-year, and 0.682/10 6 person-year respectively. Statistical difference existed between RR of FDs and RDs, with F=17.126 and P<0.05. There was no significant difference between the RR of FDs in these two strategies with F=3.493 and P>0.05, while there was a difference between the RR of RDs in these two strategies with F=24.516 and P<0.05, and a difference between the RR of total donors (TDs) in these two strategies F=20.216 and P<0.05. Conclusions:The RR of TT HIV significantly decreased after the introduction of NAT into blood test among blood centers in China. There were some differences in the RR of HIV testing among different blood screening strategies. There could be significant differences in the RR of HIV testing among different groups of blood donors. Compared with FDs, RDs is the low risk group for HIV.

【Objective】 To study the annual financial expenditure in blood stations with different scales, and to establish the regression equation between blood collection units and total expenditure. 【Methods】 The annual total expenditure, the per capita cost of serving population, as well as the collection units of whole blood and apheresis platelet of 24 blood stations were collected. The financial expenditure required for collecting 10 000U blood was calculated.The statistical analysis was carried out with SPSS statistical software. 【Results】 From 2017 to 2020, the total annual financial expenditure of 24 blood stations showed an upward trend. The total expenditure among blood stations was different. The per capita cost of servicing population in the areas where the 24 blood stations were located had been increasing year by year. The 24 blood stations were divided into two grades according to the blood collection volume as 50 000 U, and the relationship equation between the blood collection volume and the annual total expenditure had been established. After testing, each equation was effective(P<0.05); There was no difference in the financial expenditure required for collecting 10 000U blood among blood stations with different scales. 【Conclusion】 From 2017 to 2020, the blood stations with an annual collection volume more than 50 000 U demonstrated a higher financial expenditure and the per capita cost of serving population than those <50 000 U. The blood collection volume of blood stations is significantly correlated with the annual total expenditure and the per capita cost of serving population.
9.Analysis of the duration of Noravirus shedding among infected kindergarten children during an outbreak
Chinese Journal of School Health 2020;41(5):762-764
Objective:
To investigate the duration of Norovirus (NoV) shedding among infected school children during a NoV outbreak in a kindergarten,and to provide scientitic basis for epidemic prevention and control.
Methods:
Specimens and epidemiological data were collected from suspected cases, and specimens were detected using real-time RT-PCR to determine whether or not infecting with NoV. Specimens were collected every 3-7 days from NoV-infected children until specimens became negative for NoV.
Results:
A total of 14 suspected cases were reported, and 12 of them were infected with NoV. The average duration of NoV shedding was (26.58±17.94)d. The specimens among 9 from 12 Nov-infected cases were positive at 7 days, 8 NoV-intected cased remained positive at 14 days and 7 Non-infected cased at least 21 days.
Conclusion
Since NoV shedding duration among NoV-infected children tends to longer than their isolation time during outbreaks, reinforcement of hygiene practices among these school children is especially necessary to reduce the risk of virus secondary transmissions after their return to school.
